Welcome to Laughing River Yoga’s weekly meditation group.

 

Meditation and conversation meets weekly on Zoom, Sundays, 10:30-11:45.  Register online to receive the zoom link. This group is held by donation, with the proceeds donated to a local charity each month. Our donation recipients have included Chittenden Food Shelf, Veterans Yoga Project, COTS, Migrant Justice, Immigrant Justice Corps, VT Food Bank, The Marigold House Global Majority Healing Oasis, Burlington Yoga Equity project Everytown, Vermont Foodbank, and Pathways Vermont.

 

The purpose of this group is to bring our vibrant community together to practice meditation and to read and discuss inspiring books related to meditation and spiritual practice, from Buddhist, Yogic, and other contemplative traditions.

 

Each week we begin with 30 minutes of meditation practice, guided or silent, followed by 45 minutes of discussion and sharing.  Participants are welcome to come just for the meditation, or to stay for the conversation.

 

Our next book, starting on 11/30/25, is The World Exists to Set Us Free: Straight-up Dharma for Living a Life of Awareness, by Larry Rosenberg.  The assigned readings are as follows:
